Nanoelectronics faculty
Nanoelectronics
Nanoelectronics are any electronics that incorporate nanotechnology into them. Nanotechnology is one-billionth the size of a meter, and these tiny components are used in optoelectronics, semiconductor chips, display screens and more.
Electrical engineering faculty members in the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering at Arizona State University are conducting nanoelectronics research in areas such as solar power generation, information technology, incorporating DNA into materials used in the field and more.
